| | The Good Oerth |
 | | Quite a lot, if we make certain necessary assumptions and accept that each DM is going to create a unique version of Oerth to suit his or her own campaign style. | | | On the other hand, Oerth is what you make it. | | | Certainly, just about everyone who plays in and enjoys the WORLD OF GREYHAWK(R) setting also wonders what the rest of the world of Oerth looks like beyond the Flanaess. |
